i posted this earlier, but no one answered. so i'll try again.
Can you check my work please?
true/false
1.) force is a scalar quantity: *FALSE
2.) the object on which a force acts is called the system: *TRUE
3.)The specific, indentifiable cause of a force is called the system: *FALSE
4.) A force can not exist without an agent and a system: *TRUE
5.) a free-body diagram represents forces acting on a system: *TRUE
6.) When a force is a push, the force arrows in a free body diagram point towards the particle: *TRUE
7.) Force and acceleration are related in a linear fashion: *TRUE
8.) A newton is the amount of force applied to a 1 g object that will cause it to have an acceleration of 1 km/s^2: *FALSE
9.) the net foce on an object is the resultant of the force vectors:*TRUE
10.) Inertia is a force: *FALSE
11.) As the speed of am object moving through a fluid increases, the magnitude of the drag force decreases.: *FALSE
I'm sure they are already done with their assignment. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be waiting for 6 years @JT.
I'm So sorry but I can't help you at this time. I do not know the answers to these problems. I will get back to you I promise.

what happened to your promise George?
Do y'all sill need the answers ??? Because I have them
double points goes to the people who get 9 and ten!
JT is right!
To check your work, we can go through each statement one by one and determine if it is true or false.
1.) The statement "force is a scalar quantity" is FALSE. Force is actually a vector quantity because it has both magnitude and direction.
2.) The statement "the object on which a force acts is called the system" is TRUE. The system refers to the object or group of objects that are being analyzed or studied.
3.) The statement "The specific, identifiable cause of a force is called the system" is FALSE. The specific, identifiable cause of a force is called the agent, not the system.
4.) The statement "A force cannot exist without an agent and a system" is TRUE. In order for a force to act, there needs to be an agent that exerts the force and a system that the force acts upon.
5.) The statement "a free-body diagram represents forces acting on a system" is TRUE. A free-body diagram is a visual representation of all the forces acting on an object or system.
6.) The statement "When a force is a push, the force arrows in a free-body diagram point towards the particle" is TRUE. The force arrows on a free-body diagram point in the direction of the force being exerted on the object or system.
7.) The statement "Force and acceleration are related in a linear fashion" is TRUE. Newton's second law of motion states that the force acting on an object is directly proportional to its acceleration.
8.) The statement "A newton is the amount of force applied to a 1 g object that will cause it to have an acceleration of 1 km/s^2" is FALSE. A newton is defined as the amount of force that will give a mass of 1 kilogram an acceleration of 1 meter per second squared.
9.) The statement "the net force on an object is the resultant of the force vectors" is TRUE. The net force is the vector sum of all the individual forces acting on an object.
10.) The statement "Inertia is a force" is FALSE. Inertia is not a force, but rather it is the tendency of an object to resist any change in its motion.
11.) The statement "As the speed of an object moving through a fluid increases, the magnitude of the drag force decreases" is FALSE. As the speed of an object moving through a fluid increases, the magnitude of the drag force generally increases. Drag force is proportional to the square of the velocity.
Based on these explanations, you can verify the correctness of your answers.
